I nearly got my hands on a Red Asylum Uniform... So close💀
A level 2000+ approached me about my Fasnacht masks for trade, specifically wanting my Glowing Bigfoot. Told him I'm only interested in trading for rare apparel. He asks, "Do you have Red Asylum?" Immediately got my undivided attention, but... tried to play it cool, tried not to act too interested. He tells one mask isn't equal to the value of the uniform. That's debatable, depends on how badly you want either. For me, that dress is worth every single mask I have, which is an outstanding deal for him, one high value item vs 12 high value items. All my masks for one dress. One dress you can technically find at any point all year round while the masks can only be obtained during that particular two week event. So personally I think it's a spectacular deal for him. He has to "think on it." Yeah, ok, bud, you do that. It kinda pisses me off because why even bring it up if you're not willing to actually commit to trading it? Maybe he was trying to see if I'd offer more, but he didn't ask for more, and at level 2000 what do you really need? I'd give him my caps, flux, scrap, mods, whatever, all of it can easily be replaced. I just can't find this damn dress. I haven't really been looking for it lately though. I tend to look for it more towards the end of a season when fewer people are playing, and we'll probably be hitting that in a couple weeks after Invaders. Someone told me that sometimes a player can get bugged so that the red variant specifically doesn't spawn. I don't know if I trust that or not since some people spend several years looking, and do eventually find it. They're hard to find because assholes who spend all day server-hopping trying to find them just to sell them like the douchebag who sells them for $65. Not that I actually believe that bullshit, who's paying $65 real dollars for a digital dress? Maybe $10, maybe, but $65? Fuck no.

I was on 76 earlier, doing Moonshine Jamboree, when this guy comes running up to me, vigorously waving at me. I figure... he's just being annoying, standing in my way, I probably pissed him off, and now he's being a douche. I'm used to that. But then he drops a ton of junk onto the ground beside me, and he's shooting it which is generally code for, "Hey, this shit is for you." And I ignore him xD Because I don't want a bunch of useless junk. I dunno, I just... I don't like taking shit from people. I don't need it, and whatever I do need, I'll find it myself, I don't need anything from anyone, I don't need anyone's help. Classic Libra. Finally he resorts to getting on his mic, and telling me that the bag is everything he took from my vendor, and he doesn't want me to think he's a thief for taking it all for free. But... that's why I have it all in there... for free, for anyone to take. He was only a level 400, not like the level 5,000 I've watched blow through, and take everything. Either way, if I'm just giving it away then I don't care much who takes it. A lot of people complain that they want their stuff to go to newbie players. So find a newbie player, and drop everything on them. Which some do. The problem is that when you're level 1000+, and you go running at a level 20, they tend to run away despite your good intentions xD And they don't much like being chased. That's why I put it all in my vendor, and whoever grabs it, grabs it. It is nice when someone tries to be honest though, kind of a rare thing to track me down, and make sure I meant to be giving away 200 pounds of scrap for free. I mean, I'm over level 1,000 so I probably know what I'm doing, but... the game is buggy. It used to be, when 76 first came out, there was a really nasty bug where if someone bought out everything in your entire vendor, it would give them access to your entire stash inventory. That's why you'll come across vendors that have notes, and stuff marked up to max caps so it's impossible to buy out everything. Not sure if they ever fixed it. If somebody took my entire inventory I wouldn't cry about it. I've still got my gun, that's pretty much all I need.
He also asked me about my masks... Despite the big glowing sign that says they're for trade for rare apparel, people still ask me what I want for them. Obviously if I'm giving away scrap, meds, and ammo then I don't need them or money. I've had people offer me God-roll equipment, but unfortunately Bethesda has ruined g-rolls when everyone can basically craft whatever equipment they want, and I already have the best stuff for my build. So it's like... literally the only thing you could possibly offer me is rare apparel. People get way too excited over junk in this game, I honestly don't know what they do with it all... Sure, it's nice to have a certain amount of handy stuff like steel or lead or adhesive in your scrap box, stuff to repair your equipment or craft ammo, but who needs 10,000 wood or asbestos? That's why Sly sends people to me when they need shit xD Need copper? Go find Psycho. Looking for ballistic fiber? Talk to Psycho. Want mods or serums? Ask Psycho~
